Title: Add2it Mailman Free Remote Arbitrary Command Execution Vulnerability
Severity: HIGH
Description:
Mailman Free is a web based mailing list management package implemented in Perl. It may safely be assumed to run under Linux and most Unix derived operating systems.
A vulnerability exists in some versions of Mailman Free. User supplied input is used by a script to construct a call to open(). As this input is not sufficiently sanitized, it is possible to include shell escape characters and additional commands. These commands will be executed in the context of the web server, generally as user nobody. Exploitation of this vulnerability could lead to local access, from which point further elevation of privileges may be easier to obtain.
It is possible Mailman Pro and earlier verisons of the product share this vulnerability, although this has not been confirmed.
Affected Products:
- Add2it Mailman Free 1.73.0
